PARIS Dispatch TO the Iofston Telegraph.
on Monday last two lads, each Ia years OF age
committed suicide In the neighborhood OF vienna
by blowing their brains out with revolver Their
bodies were found In a vineyard, each OF them
holding revolver In his right hand. One OF the
Inflated boys was not quite dead, but he expired
soon after he was found. Each Of them had note
I'm his pocket. One ran thus: my name Is Franz
GeiSt; 1 am Ia years OF age; my father Is a gro
Ger. Dear parents, forgive me my faults and my
sins. 1 cannot help II; 1 must die" The
note found on the other boy was rs follows:
''My name is Franz Helmle. I am fourteen years
old, and Was compositors apprentice Ia the ALL
gustiner StraSSe. i have shot myself and Franz
aSo because led him aStray." This double sui
eide or Two mere children has caused a most pain

out his parents finding IL out Both he and his
companion had been reading unwhOlesome litera-
ture, which is supposed To have worked upon their
imaginatiOnS. They had neither OF them the
slightest cause for worry or complaint, and wer0

From the Hartford Courant
Good for Gen. Francis A. Walker! In Boston on
Tuesday night he stood up and attacked the mod
ern method of teac hing arithmetic in the public
schools In a way to do your heart good He says
the ssold-fashioned facility and accuracy In
ciphering have been largely sacrificed to the
numerous technical applications and difficult logi-
cal puzzles that have been introduced into the
study OF arithmetic" Children, he says, leave
the schools I'LL prepared to foot up columns Ut fig
ures though able to work out useless puzzles. He
condemns all this unQualihedly, condemns "hav.
ing the children OF Boston used any longer as an
agency for promoting" the adoption OF the metric
system, which not one In three hundred will ever
use; and holds up the modern arithmetic a. "a
bastard arithmetic, which fails to perform the
true function OF that study In our public schools,
namely, to produce accuracy and q reasonable de-
gree OF facility in numerical operations, while
wasting the time OF the pupils, perplex1ng their
minds, worrying their tempers, rasping their
nerves. and In case OF total or partial failure, un
necessarily and unnghteOusly shocking and i'm
pairing their self-respect and scholarly ambition.
